Therapy Explained:
Physical Therapy
Physical therapists are experts in the treatment of muscles, bones and nerve conditions/injuries that affect peoples' abilities to move and function in their daily lives.  Physical therapists focus on providing their patients with customized treatment regimen and exercise needed to regain strength, flexibility, balance and most of all, confidence.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapy provides an individual with the tools and techniques to over come obstacles from injury/illness to return to normal function of everyday life.  Occupational therapists work with individuals to relearn how to dress, bathe prepare meals, manage medication, and preform light house duties.  This goes beyond physical therapy where mobility is the key.  Occupational therapy works on the finely-tuned motor movements to perform specialized tasks.  In some cases, an injury leaves a patient without the ability to do tasks, so an occupational therapists can teach compensation techniques and ways to alter the environment around them.
Speech Therapy
Speech-language pathologist provide evaluation and treatment of defects and disorders of the voice and spoken and written communication.
Speech therapy also evaluates and treats neurological and physical disorders and conditions caused by an injury or illness such as Dysphagia (problems swallowing), Apraxia (disorder of motor planning) and Dysarthria (motor speech disorder).  With therapy, patients can restore their ability to communicate effectively, even if it is different than before.  Our, licensed, highly skilled therapists are specialists in treating conditions just like yours.  You can count on our team work with you one-on -one while using the most researched and effective therapy programs and interventions to help you achieve your highest outcome.
